Welcome to Industrial Engineering (IE) at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE). SIUE IE program has a
fast growing history of excellence in educating the next generation of industrial engineers and educators while
providing new solutions for industry through innovative research, collaborative projects, and hands-on experience in
our state-of-the-art facilities and labs. With nearly 15 faculty members, 110 undergraduate students, and 20 graduate
students, we are a diverse unit with research interests spanning from manufacturing processes and systems to product
design, production planning and control, supply chain management, and healthcare services/systems engineering. We offer
the B.S. degree and Graduate degrees (M.S. and Ph.D.) in industrial engineering. Both our undergraduate and graduate
programs attract consistently domestic and international students, thanks in large part to our evolving curricula and
high-class faculty. Our curriculums provide a broad-based education in manufacturing design and systems; operations
research; and production, supply chain, service engineering, and biomedical applications. We accomplish this through
a base of mathematics, physical, and engineering sciences along with hands-on laboratory and industrial experiences
that prepare students for their careers. The programs build a strong foundation for the development of a professionally
competent and versatile industrial engineer. The labs and research centers within IE help address some of the most pressing
challenges facing society today as we focus on improving efficiencies and processes across all sectors of industry
around the world.

We welcome you to explore our programs, faculty, facilities, and research areas. On behalf of the faculty and staff of
the department, thank you for visiting our pages. We hope you will visit us in person, join us, or partner with us,
as we are the change engine and the future of industrial engineering.
